measure the cylinder liner clearance after installation
to be sure that it is correct.
TAPPET AND PUSH ROD
Visually inspect the tappet contact surfaces for pitting,
cracking, and other abnormal conditions. The tappet must be
replaced if any of these conditions are present.

Inspection and Repair
Make the necessary adjustments, repairs, and part
replacements if excessive wear or damage is discovered
during inspection.

with a radiator filler cap tester.
Replace the cap if the valve opening pressure is outside the
standard range.

Check the condition of the vacuum valve in the center of the
valve seat side of the cap. If considerable rust or dirt is found,
or if the valve seat cannot be moved by hand, clean or replace
the cap.

Radiator Core
1. A bent fin may result in reduced ventilation and overheating
may occur. All bent fins must be straightened. Pay close
attention to the base of the fin when it is being straightened.
2. Remove all dust, bugs and other foreign material.
Flushing the Radiator
Thoroughly wash the inside of the radiator and the engine
coolant passages with cold water and mild detergent. Remove
all signs of scale and rust.
Cooling System Leakage Check
Use a radiator cap tester to force air into the radiator through
the filler neck at the specified pressure of 196 kPa (28.5 psi)
with a cap tester:
• Leakage from the radiator
• Leakage from the coolant pump
• Leakage from the water hoses
